A WARRIOR'S DAUGHTER By Zitkála-Šá (1876 – 1938)
The story's main message is that your environment helps to shape your identity. The book is about a woman who takes on a traditionally male role, rescuing her lover instead of playing the maiden-in-distress. The story becomes one of her strength, intelligence, and bravery instead of the prowess of the young man. The story of the young woman rescuing her male lover through strength and bravery appears occasionally in traditional storytelling across other cultures, but it is rare.
This book shares a different perspective than the male, white and middle-class view of the world.

John Stuart Mill was named the most influential English-speaking philosopher of the nineteenth century.
John Stuart Mill was one of the most influential thinkers in the history of classical liberalism.
Freedom, happiness and society are three topics as relevant today as when it was written in the 19th Century. These important topics are written about in the three important books On Liberty, Utilitarianism and Socialism.
For John Stuart Mill there are three basic liberties that a person should enjoy, 1) the freedom of thought and emotion, 2) the freedom to pursue tastes and 3) the freedom to unite.

THE ART OF MONEY GETTING and the 20 GOLDEN RULES FOR MAKING MONEY By P.T. Barnum
Those who really desire to attain an independence, have only to set their minds upon it, and adopt the proper means, as they do in regard to any other object which they wish to accomplish, and the thing is easily done. But however easy it may be found to make money, I have no doubt many of my hearers will agree it is the most difficult thing in the world to keep it. The road to wealth is, as Dr. Franklin truly says, "as plain as the road to the mill."
It consists simply in expending less than we earn; that seems to be a very simple problem.
Mr. Micawber, one of those happy creations of the genial Dickens, puts the case in a strong light when he says that to have annual income of twenty pounds per annum, and spend twenty pounds and sixpence, is to be the most miserable of men; whereas, to have an income of only twenty pounds, and spend but nineteen pounds and sixpence is to be the happiest of mortals.
Many of my readers may say, "we understand this: this is economy, and we know the economy is wealth; we know we can't eat our cake and keep it also."
Yet I beg to say that perhaps more cases of failure arise from mistakes on this point than almost any other.
The fact is, many people think they understand economy when they really do not.
THE ENCHIRIDION (the Manual) by Epictetus
Epictetus taught that philosophy is a way of life and not just a theoretical discipline.
Epictetus was a Greek Stoic philosopher and was born into slavery. Epictetus was born around AD 50
To Epictetus, We should focus on what we can control rather than what we can’t control. All external events are beyond our control; we should accept whatever happens calmly and dispassionately. However, individuals are responsible for their own actions, which they can examine and control through rigorous self-discipline.
Epictetus thought that the foundation of all philosophy is self-knowledge.
This is Epictetus manual for life and has inspired countless people over the years to improve their lives
The Enchiridion (the manual) by Epictetus is a must-read book
